The newest John Deere combine machine can harvest 180 acres of wheat and six hours. How many acres will be harvested in 10 hours.

Answer 1

To find the number of acres that will be harvested in 10 hours, we can set up a proportion:

180 acres / 6 hours = x acres / 10 hours

Cross multiplying, we get:
6 hours * x acres = 180 acres * 10 hours

Dividing both sides by 6, we get:
x acres = (180 acres * 10 hours) / 6 hours

x = (180 * 10) / 6

x = 1800 / 6

x = 300

Therefore, the newest John Deere combine machine can harvest 300 acres in 10 hours.
